Fan on a mission

We Indians are quite crazy about our superstars. From watching first-day first-shows of their movies  to walking miles to catch just a glimpse of them, we’ll do anything to show our love. Just like the young Parbat from Dwarka, Gujarat who walked all the way from his home to Mumbai to meet his beloved actor Akshay Kumar.

The Khiladi of Bollywood shared a video on Instagram, where he is seen talking to the boy and requesting him to not attempt such acts again. “Parbat from Dwarka. Met Parbat today, he walked over 900 kms all the way from Dwarka and planned it in a way to reach Mumbai in 18 days to catch me here on a Sunday. If our youth use this kind of planning and determination to achieve their goals, then there’s no stopping us! #SundayMotivation (sic),” Akshay captioned the video.

The Housefull actor who was ecstatic to have met such a fan shared a picture with the boy and wrote, “It’s always great to meet you all and I’m grateful for all the love you give me but a request to please not do these things...focus your time, energy and resources in bettering your life, that’ll make me the happiest. Wishing Parbat all the very best (sic).”
